"In 1940, the United States government constructed a female correctional facility in Seagoville, Texas, a small town of 700 located approximately twenty miles southeast of Dallas. In April 1942, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) appropriated the site and operated an internment camp for "enemy aliens." Many internees, though not all, were Japanese and Germans deported from Latin America to the United States. ...
The camp's population changed primarily as a result of repatriation to Germany and Japan. As of April 1943, the camp's population consisted of 200 Japanese and 350 Germans and "other nationals" for a total of 550 internees, internal camp records show. In June 1943, the State Department scheduled the exchange vessel, the Gripsholm, to repatriate 1,500 Japanese to Japan from Seagoville and three other internment camps."
